She was also a member of the Legion of Mary. In her spare time she enjoyed embroidering quilts, crocheting, knitting and was a Kuemper High School sports fan.      In 2008, Laverna became ill but was able to remain at her home in Carroll, where she died on June 10, 2009, at the age of 85 years, 6 months, and 5 days.     Laverna was preceded in death by her parents, husband Lawrence in 1981; son Donald Reiff, son-in-law Terry Hyland, and siblings Vernon Sanders, Anna Mae Danner, Bernice Thede, Dorothy Feeley and an infant brother.     She is survived by sons: Rev.
